Malware and hackers attack by exploiting security bugs and vulnerabilities. Even talented programmers make coding bugs, guaranteed by evidence of the last 50 years of computing, and unavoidable. Some security bugs/vulnerabilities are known to us - they are contributed by white hat hackers (the good guys) who have notified Microsoft and MS is doing it's part by patching them. But there are also those security vulnerabilities that the black hat hackers (the bad guys) know about which they keep to themselves.
Importance of Testing
It is important to note, that after hardening a system, one has to test to see if the applications that you run still runs as expected. The ideal candidate of this project is a home user with no need for communications among PCs in the LAN. That is because the more network ports you open, the less secure you become.
